Which is worse -- lynchings, or anger about AIG bonuses?

Lynchings

Anger about AIG bonuses

Same

The uproar over bonuses "was intended to stir public anger, to get everybody out there with their pitchforks and their hangman nooses, and all that — sort of like what we did in the Deep South [decades ago]. And I think it was just as bad and just as wrong."

Well, aside from the obvious offensive part that is getting all the attention. ...

I know Benmosche was brought in after AIG mismanaged itself into oblivion. But when your company would have been bankrupt and gone (and therefore, no $13 million salary for you running it, because the company wouldn't exist) except for a $128 BILLION taxpayer-funded gift that gave your company a freebie the rest of us don't get. ... you really need to just shut up and NOT tell us what you think about populism (even if you somehow manage to avoid the offensive hyperbole).
